Im looking for someone to help me with my PvZ, its by far my worst matchup. My biggest problem in PvZ is breaking a lurk contain and being agressive. My overall playstyle of starcraft in other matchups such as pvt and pvp is extremely defensive, where I let my opponent make the 1st move and then I counter that. In PvZ ive learned that being defensive is a good way to get a million ultras up your ass mid game. I usually start a game by doing an FE and then usually a +1 zeo/storm expo break. I cant really tell if im ahead or not unless the difference is quite signifigant.

Here's a rep of one of my PvZ's, at the end of this game if you notice I stopped attacking, its because we were talking.
Rep

I guess im looking for a person to play pvz with or a teacher.
**EDIT**
My skill is overall C+ since i got it last season on iccup but my pvz i would say is around C-/C its really terrible.

You could smash me a few times for practice, but I'm just a lowly D+ player.
Sorry

I find you can still play a defensive (POD-style if you will) game as long as you replace full-tilt aggression with harassment - Storm drops and DT harassment while you simply expand. Of course this style is extremely hard and requires great scouting and incredible multitasking.

I have the exact same problem (specially when i go fast zeal timing attack and then tech to storm)... sometimes i am even ahead of Z after i dispose of an expo (down 2 z expos vs my 2 expos) and then Z lurker contains me... after a while i just get outmacroed :S
Should i build goons? Should i combine sairs to get those scourges out? should i switch to reaver?
